22 January 2021: Belgium calls for ban on non-essential travel

22/1/2021

22 January 2021: In the week to 18 January on average 1,963 people tested positive for coronavirus each day. The figure is down 6% on the week. There was also a tiny drop in new hospitalizations and deaths reported. The trend continues to move in the right direction but way too slow. The situation in Belgium is better than in neighbouring countries, but the slightest spark can reignite the figures. Therefore, the key topic on today’s agenda of the government will be a proposal to ban all non-essential travel across Belgium's borders. In the Netherlands the Dutch parliament approved a 9:00 pm curfew starting as of Saturday. It looks like going to the office in Groningen is not going to be for tomorrow. Today’s picture is from my Groningen postcard greetings collection. Stay safe, stay healthy!
